Sometimes when I want to comment to a response, I am running out of english word in my head. That's why I ended up on taking too long to comment on just one response. Specially when there's too many respondent in my discussion I can't keep up on commenting cause I don't know what to say and to translate what I really meant in english word. But I love to see many response in my discussion, I feel happy when many share their thoughts and feelings about the topic that I made. The problem is just I can't keep up sometimes in many responses and I become lazy. Do you also experienced this?

Well, we need to practice more everyday and learn many vocabulary as more as we can. I think this is the key for our success here in developing our language skills in english communication. So just enjoy making discussion my friend and always participate in this community. God bless you! =)

Haha,now that is one thing you should be thankful of mylot axlrate,you are learning how to speak English better and as often. It's an advantage for us where English is really not our primary language. In my case,I just express my English as simple as possible. If I can't express it in the way I wanted to,I just make a simpler sentence but somehow is related to what I really wanna say,haha! I too feel lazy sometimes when many replies are there in my discussion,I even made a discussion out of my laziness and I believe you've made a reply from it too. Just take time replying to all of them,don't rush if you don't feel like replying as of the moment. But do reply to your respondents axlrate,you owe them that!

my training field in learning deeply the language..I believe many mylotters including me see mylot as our training field..one best advantage we are enjoying from mylot. It's hard sometimes to express our feelings in a different language and one way to enhance it is by participating here in mylot.

Yup very true! We should be thank mylot because they made a very good website where many people can gather and express about their selves and the environment with the use of english in communication, and this is what I'm taking advantage now, to make it as my training field in learning deeply the language. And about this lazyness subject, Yes, I remember now that I reply in your discussion about being lazy in many response. I just check it in your discussion page and I saw my response there. I will take your advice by not rushing in commenting, thank you for your response! I wish you more success here in mylot! God bless you! =D

Hi! I'm also happy when my discussions get many responses. I don't run out of English words though. I just run out of things to say. Sometimes I don't know how to react with the response, I don't know what to say about the things they said. Sometimes I don't comment back especially if the response is totally off-topic or just something that doesn't need a comment back, like the myLotter is not expecting for a comment. Cheers.

It happen to me too, I don't know what will I write down in the text box because I just don't know what to reply in his/her response. So what will I do is to skip it temporarily and then will comeback after I think something to write. I really regret those days that I didn't study hard in english, I am suffering now from the consequences. That's why I am doing my best now to learn it as fast as I can. =)

I do too. We all know that English is just our Second language, and even though it is taught at school, I am not good at it. I am not good in Math too. In fact, just here in Mylot that I discover I can freely express my english but not properly. I always run out of english words, that I have to stop for a while, search for the approriate word then response. I just learned a little from the e-books I read and I read responses of different members here in Mylot to learned english expression from them. I guess if our English can be understood it is okay, or else let your comment or response be specific so in the middle you will not run out.

Yup, it's okay since our english can be understood by others, like what the other respondent said to me. And I'm not that good in english too at school before, in fact I'm not interested in learning it and that's what I regret at the end. I also hate math before but I learned to love it because my friend said to me that is part of our life, you can't avoid it even if you want to. I love to practice here, I consumed lots of time here just to improve myself in communicating in english. =)

we have to practice the English, because we are belongs to non English speaking community. So every thing is new for us. We have to ask our US, UK friends for more details. They can explain everything in detail. And don't worry you can do well.

Yes, your absolutely right, we have to do our best in practicing and learning english. I'm not satisfy of my english today cause it is still rough, it is becoming a common tongue now in our capital here in the Philippines that even a small kid can talk it, that's why I became aware and decided to learn it with a 100% focus on it.

It also happens to me....but I feel happy too when a lot of mylotters respond to the topic i posted. If you are not sure on what they meant, you can clarify with them to avoid miscommunication. People has different thinking and interpretation to the texts they are reading, it is best to ask questions if there are gray areas. Being the initiator of the topic, it is our responsibility to comment and give feedback as this is what Mylot is all about, participation in discussions.

Absolutely! That is what I am doing always. I am aware of the differences of many people around the world, the culture and the ways of how they interpret things, terminologies, and different personality; I consider all of that. That's why I am not just giving a comment merely into a response. I will read it carefully first and filter it into something that I can understand and then I will reply with a cheerful attitude as possible. And thank you for reminding me and the others about being the initiator, that we need to be extra careful in what we will reply back in a response. And you're right, that's what MYLOT is all about, participation and discussion! God bless you always! =D

With over half a million classified words and another half million as yet unclassified it comes as a somewhat of a surprise to find you are running out of words! Perhaps you are not sufficiently intoxicated by the exuberance of your own verbosity! all the best urban

axlrate look do what I do when I have a lot of responses and I run out of steam, I do not just slough off my job,I do however respond to all I can at this time then come back tomorrow and do that many more. your responses pay you nothing as they are our work as we typed them so we get the pay for them .thats why your laziness could cost you big earnings as the only way your discussions are going to pay you is if you comment to all who take the time to make their responses to you.now is not the time for laziness..You have earnings to make and to enjoy talking to the responders. they took a lot of time to respond to you and you b.i.t.ch. because it will take a little time for you to write a co mment, but you will earn for each and every comment youo make.are you so laxy you do not want to earn money. those responses must be commented on so come on do what you should and earn some real money . So some comments every day and you will soon be free of them and you will have some nice earnings building up for you.

Actually I do skip a response when I can't think of something to say on his/her subject and then back again after. I know I can't earn if I will not write something or comment back to my respondent, I'm full aware with that. It's just I did really become lazy in times that I can't think of something to say and I will relax for a while to think. And then after that, I will write again and came back to what I skipped.

I can't keep up on mine though I really want to. That and I have anxiety over going to a discussion because I'm afraid of rude replies, though even rude replies can be responded to and make me money. I've ran out of words to say sometiems or doubted myself on what to say before as well.

That's true, I feel anxiety too thinking that I may upset the respondent but I just have to try to comment than doing nothing. When I feel that the english writing of the respondent are far more good, or should I say in perfect format, it's hard for me to keep up and to think something that I can reply back, my thought is how can I keep my english grammar good and my spelling correct. Anyway I learn everyday, so that's what matter right? =)

I never had the problem of running out of words in fact there are lots to keeping writing for a topic, i love the way to comment on others post, its a good way to express ones thought here, sometimes when am lazy its a different story, but i have motivation to control my laziness posting,atleast you will earn a penny or something for each posting which keeps me going here. Also its a good way to improve your communication skills too. The harder you try better it should get to write fast and getting words quickly to post.
